Pre Heresy Death Guard Deathshroud Terminators Showcase

Hi All,

Doc here with another showcase post.  As I paint towards the Scribes of War Heresy event in Stratford at the end of the month I expect a couple of posts before it as I finish off the remaining units.  I will then do an after action report to showcase some of the best painted armies etc. 

Anyway today's post is about my deathrshroud terminators.  I actually have 10 of them but have only painted the 6 in the list.  Time constraints have made me do that!  They are painted in my usual scheme and my white recipe can be found in my last showcase for my assault marines.  I had some issues with bent weapons and did my best to straighten them using the hairdryer method.  Without further do here is some pictures:







As usual hope you like it constructive comments and questions are most welcome..

Cheers DOC out.....

Heresy Era Imperial Fists; Leviathan Dreadnought

Hi All

Bluddtoof here with a long overdue post to showcase my Heresy Imperial Fists Leviathan Dreadnought....




My long term goal is to have a mixed force available for both 30k and 40k, with some models unique to one or the other but most able to field in either.
The Leviathan is equipped  to fit in either, with Heavy Flamers.
I fielded this against Docs Deathguard and the guns are devastating against infantry!

A few more shots...






I tried a new way (for me) of doing OSL which I saw online, it comprises a white base and then alternating blue glaze and white dry brush, many times! I basically kept on adding alternating layers until I got bored! Thankfully I was happy with the result. It needs more practice I feel but I'm pleased with the intensity of the glow.

Hope you like, C & C welcome as always.

Adeptus Titanicus, current progress....Knight and Strategic Assets

Hi All

Bluddtoof here with a quick progress update on my Titanicus stuff.
Still loving this and I've now completed the first knight with the other 2 well on the way.
I also painted up the 6 strategic assets whilst other things were drying over the last week.
Once the knights are done I'll be buying the first of my titans, probably warhounds to start so I can build up to the bigger models.
I still have no idea which legio to do or even if I want to paint a canon one or make up my own. I'll cross that bridge once I get to it.

Here's a few pics of the state of play.....



That's the assets
And here's a few idividually..








And the knight..










Once all 3 are done I'll weather them together a little.
Hope you like, C & C welcome as ever....

Hobby Update, Apologies and Adeptus Titanicus!

Hi All

First up a big apology from myself and on behalf of everyone here at Code40k for our lack of activity over the summer! Hopefully now the weather's calmed down we'll all be a little more active.

So this will be a bit of an update on the little bit of stuff I've done over the summer and the lovely stuff which has reignited my mojo.......namely Adeptus Titanicus!



As you've probably seen from Docs last post (back in the mists of time, or more accurately June!) we sent a small posse to Battlefield Birminghams Doubles Tournament, here's a few pics of the force I took and a couple of 1 of my opponents I particularly liked...















The next task Doc and I embarked on was getting some scenery started for the next mission in The Cypra Incident; our narrative campaign, which is due a revisit soon
Some pics of the scenery in progress....










Then of course I need to get some new Ork forces ready for the airfield mission, in the form of some more Deffkoptas....





This was when the weather turned near tropical in South Gloucestershire! With paint drying on the brush, never mind the pallet, I found other things to do......

.....until Adeptus Titanicus hit...

I wasn't prepared to splash £200 outright so I used some vouchers I had and dipped my foot in with the rules set and a box of knights to start, and started to build some scenery from scratch.
Pics....















I'm well impressed by the rules and the models are really nice so I splashed out on some of the GW scenery; the Civitas Imperialis Sector. This kit is FANTASTIC! Loads of bits with a really nice modular construction system. You can make a lot from it....




I've got quite a few odd bits left over which will find homes on titan bases and in more scratch built scenery.

And so now I'm nearing completion on my first knight.....



















And that's me up to date.......almost, whilst I've been writing this and waiting for pics to upload my first knight is very near completion, just some weathering powders to apply and he's done, but more on him next week....
Here's a little vid of so far...
